Open in new window with CSS?

Dear all,

Is it possible to do this with CSS (so that I don't write all that with
every link)?

<a href="blabla.mp3" target="new"
onclick="window.open('','new','toolbar=no,location =no,directories=no,status=
no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,width=15 0,height=20,top=50,left=50
');return true;">blabla</a>

What is this, by the way? DHTML, XHTML or what?

Thanks in advance,
Pastis

Put it in a JavaScript function and then call the function.
<a href="blabla.mp3" target="new"
onclick="window.open('','new','toolbar=no,location =no,directories=no,status=
no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes,width=15 0,height=20,top=50,left=50
');return true;">blabla</a>

It's HTML or XHTML with JavaScript.

It's a perfect abomination -- which, fortunately, is ignored by my
browser.

It's a piece of inline Javascript being used to create an effect that many
if not most people find extremely annoying, so much so that modern browsers
offer a setting to keep it from happening.

Oh, I personally, as a user, don't mind it at all when used in the right
places.
